Ugliness comes from the inside, not the outside. As long as you're comfortable under your own skin, you won't feel ugly. Just understand that beauty comes from within. Your only feel beautiful if you feel beautiful on the inside. Accept yourself and have confidence!!! Be yourself!!! You're in God's hands so you make it work for him.

"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." We've all heard it before, and it may seem cliche, but there is a lot of truth in that simple saying. One cannot define beauty. The reason you are feeling down about yourself, is that you are putting beauty into a very narrow category. I understand why you feel this way. You might walk by magazines at the supermarket or newspaper stand, and see models and celebrities all glammed out on on the front cover. You might see girls at school (I know exactly how they can be) dolled up on the runway that is high school. What do these two groups have in common? Well, for starters, "perfect" hair, "perfect" clothes, "perfect" makeup; you get the picture. But why should they be the only ones considered pretty? What about you?
By the sounds of it, you are down-to-earth. A lot of popular girls who constantly get praised for being so pretty, practically fall in love with their reflection in the mirror- they don't necessarily have their doubts about being pretty. And then you get the rest of us, who sometimes question if we are pretty or not, because we don't necessarily fall into the narrow category of "beauty," that society has set up (and high school or middle school being a product of this, of course). You know what? Over the years I have realized that confidence is the most important factor, just like the first columnist said. Once you feel good about yourself, you will stop constantly having doubts about your beauty. And really, it absolutely is what is on the inside that counts. If you are confident in who you are, you can feel pretty anytime. You will realize that it's more than what's on the surface that matters.
I am sure that you are a pretty girl; you might be at an awkward age, in which case it is normal to feel that way. I felt that way too in middle school and part of high school. When I was 12, our English teacher was passing out our class photos, and she said something about how I looked nice in my picture, and this girl squinted, and said, "no," as in --no, she doesn't. Trust me, I know how cruel girls can be. And i know where they are getting their ideas. That might be part of the reason you don't feel pretty. But you know what- by feeling that way, you are giving into their distorted perception of beauty. Just understand that you are beautiful. No body can or should make you feel otherwise. Remember, as the first columnist mentioned, confidence is beautiful. And as you grow, you will come to feel at one with your true self, and care far less about what other people think, your looks included. I am sure that you have a lot to offer, on the outside and inside. Do not ever change yourself for other people, whether it is to act a certain way, or look a certain way. In the end, you are only comfortable with being YOU. I agree with the first answer- if you want to do something for yourself looks-wise, then make sure to only do it for yourself, and not just to impress everyone. But remember- if you look the world in the face, and feel comfortable with yourself, then you will feel beautiful, inside and out.

Everyone has flaws and no one is perfect.
Beauty is more than what's on the outside.
Everyone has something about them that they don't like. Don't feel alone in this situation because just about everyone goes through this every day.
If you feel that you need to change something about yourself, then don't be afraid to do it. Just don't do it for anyone but yourself.
Just remember that you don't have to keep up with the hottest styles or the latest fashions to be beautiful. Confidence is the most important part of beauty.
